67-04 Garfield Avenue, Queens, NY 11377

The three-story, two-family residential building at 67-04 Garfield Avenue in Maspeth, owned by Nino Storic and constructed in 1955, has a documented history of violations from early 2018 that collectively raise concerns about building safety and code compliance. These violations, all of which have since been resolved, stemmed from unauthorized construction work carried out by Predrag Storic.

The most serious of these was a violation for operating as an unauthorized multiple dwelling, as inspectors found the property occupied as a three-family residence despite official records only permitting two families. This violation led to a $1,200 penalty, though records show no balance due at resolution.

Additionally, the property underwent unpermitted renovations that included first-floor modifications such as full-height partitions, gas line installations for a stove, water lines for a bathroom suite, and electrical work. A subsequent violation was issued due to non-compliance with a commissioner's order related to these unauthorized modifications, though notably, no penalties were imposed for this infraction. While all these violations have been resolved, their occurrence suggests a period of regulatory non-compliance that required intervention from the Department of Buildings.
